Transparent, compliant, and value‑for‑money solutions for councils, NHS, blue‑light, and central government

Public bodies face strict procurement rules, scrutiny on value, and the need to evidence social value and carbon reduction. Estates are diverse — offices, depots, healthcare, schools, leisure — with varied waste streams including clinical and hazardous, WEEE, confidential records, and food waste. Utilities represent major operational costs and risks.

Waste Consult supports public sector organisations with independent waste consultancy and utility reviews that are transparent, auditable, and aligned with policy outcomes. We don’t sell services; we help you specify, compete, and manage them effectively.

Our approach with public bodies

We conduct structured audits across asset types, validate waste and utility data, and map service gaps. We create specifications and evaluation criteria that prioritise performance, compliance, and social value. We set KPIs and reporting that withstand scrutiny, and we upskill internal teams to manage 

contracts confidently.
